Nick RushtonAIRBUS UK Broughton boss Craig Harrison has turned to Wrexham to fill the gap in his strike force after losing promising youngster Jake Cassidy to Wolves.
Harrison has arranged a loan deal with the Dragons for Nick Rushton, who was a member of the Racecourse outfit's successful youth team last season.
Meanwhile Cassidy, who wasn't at the Airfield long enough to make a Welsh Premier appearance, has leapt from obscurity into Brian Flynn's Wales Under-19 squad for a friendly in Liechtenstein next month.
The 17-year-old, who was plying his trade with Llandudno Junction a few months ago, has been named by Flynn alongside Shrewsbury Town youngster Tom Bradshaw, who featured in the Welsh Cup final for Aberystwyth Town in 2009 before moving to the League Two outfit as a scholar.
